M’DONALD FAILING. London, Feb. 16.—Premier Mac- Donald’s broad shoulders are be- ginning to droop under the heavy burden of his dual office of pre- mier and foreign minister. The condition of his health is causing his friends some solicitude. They remarked his pale and haggard ap- pearance in the house of commons yesterday which probably is due%o j insomnia and neuritis brought on} by overwork. It is believed the premier may soon try to find with- in the ranks of the labor party a man with sufficient ability and training to look after the govern- ment’s ever increasing interests in the foreign field.

How vividly,’ when one of the old recollections are recalled, does the memory of that great epochal event come back? The days of preliminary expectation, heightened by the curi- osity arrousing newspaper announce- ;ments; the early morning arising so you could beat your chum down to the theatre, so you would be in time thereby getting the doctment that would admit,you to the still’ unknown world of wonders; how vividly one ‘Vives it all over again? What a glorious page it makes in.the life story of days forever gone? Is it any wonder then that the coming oldest theatrical attraction touring on’ this continent, stirs the communi- ty to its foundations? To the chil- dren it. means the unfolding of new delights, those of a promise of a renewal of pleasure, of sight and sound that have long been forgotten. There is foo, the educational side. of “Uncle Tom’s Cabin,” which appeals _ instinctively to both young and old. “Uncte Tom’s Cabin” never grows old, there runs through it a’ vein of pathos peculiarly touching ang sweet.
